What We do
Wait List Application
Interested in enrolling your child into our center? To apply complete the Wait List Application [doc] and email it to: as-cdc@sjsu.edu
The priority for enrolling new families into our center is as follows:
- San Jose State University students
- San Jose State University Alumni, Staff and Faculty
- Community
For San Jose State students, families are ranked based upon their indicated income on the waitlist application and prioritized lowest income first. San Jose State University student families may qualify for subsidized care through the California Department of Education based upon their income and family size. This is why it is important to write your gross income (include wages, Financial Aid, Disability and all sources of income) on the wait list application.
When a space becomes available, the Center Director will reach out to you via email and offer you the space. If you have questions about filling out the application or would like to update your application, please contact the center.
